advisable to store them in the refrigerator compartment as shown in fig. 4
below, making sure to wrap them in aluminium or plastic sheets or in
appropriate covered containers to avoid cross-contamination.

Fruit / Vegetables
• To decrease fruit and vegetable moisture losses they must be wrapped in
plastic materials such as, for example, films or bags and then inserted in the
fruit/vegetable zone. In this way rapid deterioration is avoided.

Practical recommendations
Place food on the shelves in a homogeneous manner to allow air to
circulate properly and to cool it.
• Avoid contact between the food and the far end walls of the refrigera-
tor compartment.
• Do not introduce hot foods as they can cause deterioration of existing
ones and increase energy consumption.
• Remove the wrappings of foods before inserting them.
• Do not put in dishes or other containers unless previously washed.
•Do not obstruct the cold air ventilator openings with food.
• Do not cover the glass shelf of the vegetable bin to allow for proper
air circulation.
Fig.4
• Do not store bottles in the freezer compartment as they can burst
when frozen.
• ln the case of prolonged power outage, keep the doors closed so that
foods remain cold as long as possible.
• The installation of the appliance in a hot and humid location, with
frequent door openings and storing large amounts of vegetables can
cause the formation of condensate and affect the performance of the
unit itself.
• To prevent excessive energy consumption, the frequent or prolonged
opening of the doors is not recommended.
